I’m interested in the wheels. Can you tell what the weight of them are please?

Hi just popped them on the scales:
Front is 1.36kg,
Rear is 1.57kgI think the FMB tubs are ~420g each and the rotors are 115g for the front and 153g for the rear.
Which would make the wheel weights approx:
Front: 825g
Rear: 997g -

Ooh. Very nice. Do you know if you can convert the hubs to 12 mm thru axles, I.e. can you just pop off the end caps?

It's part of the axle: http://wheelsmfg.com/tech/PDF/hub/hb-m758.pdf
Looks like you can get 12mm-15mm inserts reducers though.
I am not going to be racing this season, so no point in hanging on to these lovely wheels.
25mm wide Ambrosio disc specific rims laced with sapim double butted spokes to Shimano hubs - XT 15mm bolt thru front and 105 11speed QR rear. The 15mm thru-axle is easily adapted to QR if neccessary.
160mm shimano rotors.
FMB Supermud tubulars with the special green compound - these are quite frankly amazing, ridiculous amounts of grip in the mud and they shed the mud really well so don't clog up. Happy being run at crazy low pressure and the sidewalls are factory* aquasealed. These were 180EUR for the pair...
*more of an artisan studio than a factory...
£260 for the lot collected from Bristol or I can post - likely to be around £15.
Will consider splitting if someone buys the wheels first.
